Danvers Pool

Danvers Pool LLC works out of 4 Dartmouth Street in Danvers and is a family operation: BuildZoom lists Dana Weymouth as owner with Paul J Weymouth as owner/manager, and homeowners across its review record simply call him PJ. The company's own Thumbtack profile says it was founded in 1986 and worked the North Shore until it relocated in 2010, returning to the area after twelve years away; the same page claims forty years in business, four employees, and a background check completed on Paul Weymouth in July 2022. Massachusetts registry records confirm a Home Improvement Contractor registration, #209475, held in the name Danvers Pool LLC and active when checked. What people hire them for is pool work of nearly every kind — cleaning and seasonal openings and closings, leak diagnosis, liner replacement, retiling and resurfacing, pump and filter repair, and full in-ground construction. A July 2025 reviewer walked through an entire vinyl liner replacement, from removing the old liner through measuring and installation, and praised a wrinkle-free fit; another that same month said the company diagnosed a pool leak, quoted the repair and finished it in two days after several other firms could not fit them in. The praise is consistent on speed: a 2023 homeowner got a last-minute clean within two days, another was served on Memorial Day weekend, and a 2023 reviewer who had been abandoned by a previous contractor said PJ's crew responded fast in the busiest part of the season. Several reviewers also credit work beyond the water — patio and stonework in April 2025, and a yard grading job that grew into a landscape design project. The thing to ask about before booking is what happens after the deposit clears. Three separate homeowners, writing in 2023, 2024 and 2025, describe the same pattern: a 2023 reviewer said pool tiles began popping off a month after refilling and that emails, voicemails and texts went unanswered; a 2024 reviewer said the problem was never resolved and calls and texts were not returned; a 2025 reviewer said a filter repair was booked and nobody showed. A separate 2025 reviewer who was happy with the finished pool and backyard redesign said the promised guidance for a first-time pool owner stopped once the six-figure job was paid for. This is a strong call for pool repair, liner and seasonal work, especially when you need someone quickly.
